Traveling Essentials

 



Hello Friends, welcome to today's post. 

As you know, I get to travel with my husband's job now, and packing is necessary for work trips. I get a lot of questions about things I use to travel with. I'm just going to show you some examples. A lot of these items help us pack better to save space and are easy to keep set up, ready to use every day, whether we are in a hotel or somewhere more comfortable and spread out. You know, in a hotel room, you don't have a lot of room, so these are easy to access and still stay packed at the same time to save us room. If you are getting ready to travel somewhere, some of these may come in really handy for you, too. 









If I had to pick one item to choose from, it would be the packing cubes hands down. They make organizing and packing your suitcases so easy, and you can actually pack more. When searching for an item, you only get out one cube, and the rest of the suitcase stays nice and tidy. It amazes me how much I can put in one cube. 

Keep in mind, these pictures are just examples of the products; the prices can vary accordingly. 

If you see something you like, you are free to shop through our Amazon  Store Front link(linked below)  and browse away. 
If you go through our link and make a purchase, keep in mind you are supporting our farm as well.

Life Lately On The Farm

Welcome to today's post.


Hello Friends. Sorry, I have been missing in action lately. This is why. LIFE IS HAPPENING!!!!!!
We kicked the month of June off with VBS for our girls at their church. I am so glad they had this opportunity. Our church was having VBS the same week. I wanted to take them to ours, but by all means, I'm glad they went somewhere. They had a good time, and we got invited to family night on the last night. 








While the garden was growing wonderful plants and vegetables, we had some time to work on some hobbies and teach some sewing skills. 
 



We got to spoil a very special girl on her birthday. 







We celebrated Father's Day with my Daddy. My Momma and Daddy made a trip up here and went to church with us. Our oldest son and family went to their church that morning but joined us after all services was over and we had lunch together that I prepared for all of us. 







Every year on Flag Day, we change the flags and dispose of old ones properly according to Military Standards. 









We do not sit and watch TV or play on tablets all day, every day, either. We use our creativity and play. If that means saving some Amazon boxes for them to use, that will keep them busy for 2 hours, so be it. 



I bought some craft carts at Walmart for them to use too. I love that their craft and art supplies are neat and organized now. And they can roll them to any room they want. 


We finally got our pool up and are now able to enjoy these hot days of summer and enjoy our little tabletop fire pit. Our swimming pool and little fire pit are in my Amazon Store (linked below) on my Outdoor Recreation List. We love the little fire pit for quick s'mores and roasted hot dogs for lunch after swimming. 












Every year we make a trip to our old home place where my grandparents lived and are buried to take care of and decorate their gravesites along with other family members. 








Afterwards, we always have a picnic and take the grandkids to the local park in town. We get to ride around and show them where we went to school and lived when I was growing up. 










Now this is a beautiful sight to behold. The garden is producing its first fruits of the season. 








First time ever growing our own blackberries. Looks like a blackberry cobbler kind of night. 


And of course, there are the chores and cows. Momma and babies are all doing fine. 













I am loving all my herbs too, that I planted in these stackers from Dollar Tree (linked below). I am making wonderful tinctures with them to stock my apothecary. I will link a video below on how I do this and explain how I take 5 major herbs and turn them into natural medicine.




That is all we have been up to here on the farm, and there will be plenty more to do as we get further into the season. 

If you have YouTube and are wondering how we plant, grow, and maintain our garden, you can catch all our videos here on our Garden Playlist on our channel 

If you are a reader and want to read all about this same content, check out our Gardening Page here on our blog 


When the time comes to harvest all your bounty and you would like some ideas on how to preserve your harvest, you can get some ideas from our Canning and Preserving Playlist on our channel 


If you would rather read about these ideas instead, you can go to here on our blog 


Here is the video where I show you how to use 5 Major Herbs As Medicine. I explain each one in detail and the natural properties of each and each ailment they are used for. I also show you how I prepare mine to store in my apothecary. 




Catch some of our latest videos as well while you are visiting. If you like our content on our channel, be sure to like and subscribe and turn your notifications bell on so you will get notified each and every time a new video is uploaded. We would love to have you. This also helps our channel grow and reach more people. Could you please help us do that? We would greatly appreciate it. 








And the best one of all, if you are struggling and need to know of ways to put more money in your pocket, here is a very informative video. Warning, grab a snack, pen and paper and be ready to take notes. This is exactly some things we found ways to cut corners and be smart stewards of our finances. 



I hope you have enjoyed spending time with me today. And as always, I hope I have helped you in some way with your gardening, canning and preserving and everyday homemaking.
